Point is, if you don't install the garbage from the beginning, you don't have to go back with MSCONFIG and remove things you are not sure what they are.Unchecking stuff in msconfig is non destructive so it doesn't matter if one knows what the processes are or not. No harm can happen to the computer by checking or unchecking processes in msconfig in any way.

Ok, so you disable some things, now programs quit working, example, Adobe Elements 6 ran some sort of service if you disabled it the program would no longer run, you then you had to enable it again, then the program would run. So my point was if you do multiple things with your computer, you would want one configuration for one thing one for another. When I was using DOS, I would have a program that would allow me multiple Autoexc.bat and config.sys files boots so I could manage my memory better. Too bad MSconfig does not allow this. So I would rather multiboot for certain things that are geared toward a specific job. I don't run any screen savers, sounds or themes when working with music and recording, but in my web browser boot I have both. I don't install print drivers in some of the boots because they take up resources and I don't need it. So that is why I do it. Hard drive space is cheap and even if you multiboot, you can still use the other boot drives for storage.
I agree unchecking processes brings no harm because you just enable them all again, but in situations were you don't want to install certain things and the hassle of enable then disable them depend on what you are doing also looking things up to see what they do, I think multiboot it is the fastest way for me, thus the suggestion.
